I am getting my staples out tomorrow and I was excited because they itch so bad and are kinda starting to pull but I just realized that will probably be really painful, especially the 3 in my belly button. Anybody want to share their experience so I can try to mentally prepare?

It wasn't bad at all. Just felt a little pressure like pinching. Don't sweat it!! I had mine removed 1 week out, not sure how far out, if they have been in longer it could feel different.

I didn't have staples with this surgery, however I did for my tuba ligation and they were in my belly button...kind of tickled...didn't hurt at all. Good luck!

Getting staples out is no sweat! It feels a little weird but barely hurts at all.
